So i successfully completed the TB Engine Coolant Bypass mod last night! I ended up using a straight hose connector because i couldn't find an elbow one, it worked just fine. The hardest part was getting the hoses off the stems because they were a little corroded. So i had to twist them a bit to break the friction. I didn't have any vise grips so i improvised by using wrenches and zip ties to hold them together. Driving around... i notice no difference in performance at all. I think this is just one of those mods that you know increases power, but not enough for you to notice. Total time to do this was 2 hours. Pics belowwww (sorry i took them with my phone). Oh and a bonus "666.6mi" pic =P.

 

Nice!
